With some Mystery Photos, we know a lot going in. With this one, we know very little. Who is this little girl and why was this photo shot on such a hard day?
What we do know is this photo was shot as a postcard image at either the Penny Arcade in Duluth or the Post Card Shop in Minneapolis. The card doesn’t have a postmark on it, so it’s hard to know more.
The message at the bottom appears to read:
Dear Mama,
This is a hard day. Smile
good — it won’t come off.
